I have an 05 HSE on 19"'s, and am keen to change.
I have seen other posts which mention that 22"'s affect the ride quality. Can somebody inform in what way it is affected?
If it sorts out bodyroll, then good!

when moving up to 22" alloys, it means you move down in tyre profile (less sidewall), such that you keep the same rolling diameter as the standard wheels. This means less sidewall movement, which "usually" results in a stiffer/harsher ride. It wont affect bodyroll at all, but will firm the ride up - usually too firm for most people.
